What is a data warehouse? [JH]What is a data warehouse? [JH]Defined in many different ways, but not rigorously.
A decision support database that is maintained separately from the organization’s ODB.Support information processing by providing a solid platform of consolidated, historical data for analysis.
“A data warehouse is a subject-oriented, integrated, time-variant, and nonvolatile collection of data in support of management’s decision-making process.” —W. H. InmonCase Study 2: Continental Airlines flies high with its real-time data warehouse

What is a data warehouse? [ET]What is a data warehouse? [ET]Data warehouseA physical repository where relational data are specially organized to provide enterprise-wide, cleansed data in a standardized format.Characteristics
Subject oriented, Integrated, Time Variant, Non-volatileWeb-based, Relational/multidimensional, Client/server, Real-timeInclude metadata
Data warehousingProcess of constructing and using data warehouses.Requires data integration, data cleaning, and data consolidation.
5
Subject OrientedSubject Oriented
Organized around major subjects, such as Organized around major subjects, such as customer, product, sales.P id i l d i i d Provide a simple and concise view around particular subject issues by excluding data that are not useful in the decision support process.Focusing on the modeling and analysis of data Focusing on the modeling and analysis of data for decision makers, not on daily operations or transaction processingtransaction processing.

IntegratedIntegratedIntegrate multiple, heterogeneous data sources
Relational databases, flat-files, on-line transaction records
Data cleaning and data integration techniques are g g qapplied
Ensure consistency in naming conventions, encoding Ensure consistency in naming conventions, encoding structures, attribute measures, etc. among different data sourcessources
E.g., Hotel price: currency, tax, breakfast covered, etc.
Wh d i d h h i i dWhen data is moved to the warehouse, it is converted.
7
Time VariantTime VariantThe time horizon for the data warehouse is significantly longer than that of operational systems.
Operational database: current value data.Operational database: current value data.
Data warehouse data: provide information from a historical perspective (e g past 5-10 years)perspective (e.g., past 5-10 years)
Every key structure in the data warehouse
Contains an element of time, explicitly or implicitly
But the key of operational data may or may not contain “time element”.
8
Non volatileNon-volatileA physically separate store of data transformed from the p y y p
operational environment.
O i l d f d d i h d Operational update of data does not occur in the data
warehouse environment.
Does not require transaction processing, recovery, and
concurrency control mechanismsy
Requires only two operations in data accessing:
i i i l l di f d d f dinitial loading of data and access of data.

Data Warehouse vs Heterogeneous DBMSData Warehouse vs. Heterogeneous DBMSTraditional heterogeneous DB integration:
Build wrappers/mediators on top of multiple, heterogeneous databases. Ex: IBM Data Joiner, Informix DataBlade
Q d i h Query driven approach:
When a query is posed to a client site, a metadata-dictionary is used to translate the query into queries appropriate for the individual to translate the query into queries appropriate for the individual heterogeneous sites involved. There queries are then mapped and sent to local query processors. The results returned from the different
d l b l sites are integrated into a global answer set.
Complex information filtering and integration processes, compete forresourcesresources.
Inefficient and potentially expensive for frequent queries, especially for
queries requireing aggregations.q q g gg g

Data Warehouse vs Heterogeneous DBMS (2)Data Warehouse vs. Heterogeneous DBMS (2)Using DW update-driven approach
Information from multiple, heterogeneous sources is integrated in advance and stored in a warehouse for direct querying and analysis.
Unlike OLTP DW do not contain the most current informationUnlike OLTP, DW do not contain the most current information.DW brings high performance to the integrated heterogeneous DB system since data are copied preprocessed integrated DB system since data are copied, preprocessed, integrated, annotated, summarized, and restructured into one data store.Query processing in DW does not interfere with the processing Query processing in DW does not interfere with the processing at local sourcesDW can store and integrate historical information and support g ppcomplex multidimensional queries.

Why Separate DW?Why Separate DW?
High performance for both systems:g p yDBMS — tuned for OLTP: access methods, indexing, concurrency control, recoveryWarehouse — tuned for OLAP: complex OLAP queries,computation of large groups of data at summarized levels,multidimensional view, consolidation.,
Processing OLAP queries in operational databases would degrade the performance of operational tasks.In ODB, concurrency control and recovery mechanisms (locking, logging) are required to ensure the consistency
d b f i and robustness of transactions. OLAP read only access. No need for concurrency control and recoverycontrol and recovery.
14
Why Separate DW? (2)Why Separate DW? (2)Different functions and different data:
missing data: Decision support requires historical data which operational DBs do not typically maintain. So, data in ODB is usually far from complete for decision making. y p gdata consolidation: DS requires consolidation (aggregation, summarization) of data from heterogeneous sources. ODB
t i d t il d d t (t ti ) hi h d t b contain detailed raw data (transactions) which need to be consolidated before analysis.data quality: different sources typically use inconsistent data q y yp yrepresentations, codes and formats which have to be reconciled.

Conceptual Modeling of DWConceptual Modeling of DWData Cube:
see TSBD Lecture Notes on Visualization of Data Cubes
M d li d t h di i & tModeling data warehouses: dimensions & measurementsStar schema: A single object (fact table) in the middle connected to a number of objects (dimension tables one for each to a number of objects (dimension tables, one for each dimension).Snowflake schema: A refinement of star schema where the dimensional hierarchy is represented explicitly by normalizing the dimension tables.Fact constellations: Multiple fact tables share dimension tables.
Also known as galaxy schema

Data MartData MartDW collects information about subjects that span the entire organization, such as customers, products, sales, assets, and personnel. Its scope is enterprise-wide.For DW, fact constellation schema is commonly used since it can model multiple, interrelated subjects.Data Mart is a subset of a DW, focuses on a particular subject. Its scope is department-wide. Typically, a data mart
f l b ( k consisting of a single subject area (e.g. marketing, operations).For Data Mart, star or snowflake schema are commonly used since both are geared towards modeling single
bj t lth h th t h i lsubjects, although the star schema is more popular.23
Data MartData MartA data mart can be either dependent or independent.A dependent data mart is a subset that is created directly from the DW.
Consistent data modelProviding quality dataDW must be constructed firstEnsures that the user viewing the same version of the data that
d b ll h d h are accessed by all other data warehouse users
An independent data mart is a small warehouse designed f d d i i EDWfor a department, and its source is not an EDW.

Data Integration and the ETL ProcessData Integration and the ETL ProcessVarious integration technologies:
Enterprise Application Integration (EAI)A technology that provides a vehicle for pushing data from source
t i t d t h systems into a data warehouse Integrating application functionality and is focused on sharing functionality across systemsTraditionally, API. Nowadays, SOA (web services).
Enterprise Information Integration (EII)An evolving tool space that promises real-time data integration from
a variety of sources, such as relational databases, Web services, and multidimensional databases A mechanism for pulling data from source systems to satisfy a request for information.
